Notes
  • This one-off group competed in a talent contest, which they did not win
  • The dating and most details come from Ken Frankel.
  • Marshall Leicester was on Easter break from studies at Yale. It is possible that this happened during Christmas break 1962.
  • Robert Hunter recalled sharing the bill with the Kentucky Colonels, who appeared at the Ash Grove in late April 1963, perhaps rolling into May (per LA Times, 4/28/63, who mention them among the venue's "current attractions")
